After Perelman rejected the Fields medal for this proof, he said about the Clay Millennium prize: "I'm not going to decide whether to accept the prize until it is offered" . This was a few years ago. Now that it is offered I would like to

I'm a Hebrew speaker, and I really doubt it. Whenever I get some technological appliance that can speak Hebrew, I turn it to English. One of the big reasons is that Hebrew is right-to-left, which is a nightmare. You can't even type Facebook

Yes I have. It seems you have much better googling skills than myself. If you wish you can try yourself and post your findings.

Jason, I think you are being too snarky. Here's an example where Wolfram Alpha served me well: http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=distance+between+haifa+... Nothing fancy, but it did the job and gave me a few bits of information I didn'

I disagree. It has, in some cases, served me very well. I agree it has a long way to go.

I was trying to figure out how much the price of fish fluctuates through the seasons. Instead I got this. Is this another geek joke? What's it referring to? EDIT: Bonus imaginary karma points to whoever can point me to a graph showing the f

It was indeed discovered before. My goal was, exactly as you said it, to make the material easily understandable.

I like how it's shorter to say and write.

I agree with most of the article, but I wish Jeff Atwood would stop telling us what programmers should be like and who we should not hire. He has good observations, but he's talking like a cult leader and that's annoying.

I appreciate that you said you aren't angry at people who complain that your product isn't given for free. I hate it when developers are angry at people who want their software to be free.

It says "the total rest masses." This is talking about the rest mass, which is different than the relativistic mass. I believe that the relativistic mass is the one that actually matters. To your question, I agree that the energy released

He's just saying that if it's possible to transform x kg of something into y energy It's not possible. That's what I'm saying. That's the wrong assumption.

I believe I have the answer. There is no way to convert between energy and matter. Thinking that E=mc^2 is an "exchange rate" between energy and matter is a common misconception. The meaning of E=mc^2 is not that you can exchange E amount

Thanks, that is interesting. It seems though that you experienced a decline of 50%, while mine was more like 95%.

This only shows the last month, which doesn't help a lot. I'd want something like 6 months at least.

I think that Israeli start-ups are less into front-end web things that get famous, and more into developing technology that big companies buy and that you never hear about. But I'm not sure, I hope someone else here knows the answer.

You are right that relatively to Israel's population, the number of open-source Israelis may be normal. But I'm not asking this relatively to population size. It's already clear that Israelis have a disproportional number of technology work
